While still a child, Luria lost his father, and was brought up by his rich maternal uncle Mordechai Frances, a tax-farmer out of Cairo, Egypt.

With him Luria visited the grave of Rabbi Shimon bar Yochai and those of other eminent teachers ; it is said that these graves were unmarked ( the identity of each grave was unknown ), but through the guidance Elijah each grave was recognized.

The most important theological, as opposed to practical, motive for harmonization was the Kabbalistic teachings of Isaac Luria and Ḥayim Vital.

Luria himself always maintained that it was the duty of every Jew to abide by his ancestral tradition, so that his prayers should reach the gate in Heaven appropriate to his tribal identity.

Salvador Edward Luria ( Turin, August 13, 1912 – Lexington, Massachusetts, February 6, 1991 ) was an Italian microbiologist.

Hasidim, though usually ethnically Ashkenazi, usually use liturgies with varying degrees of Sephardic influence, such as Nusach Sefard and Nusach Ari, in order to follow the order of the prayers set by Rabbi Isaac Luria, often called " Ari HaKadosh ", or " The Holy Lion ".

However, many individuals and communities round the world ( principally Mizrahi Jews but also Ḥasidim ) discarded their ancestral rites in favour of the modified Sephardic rite used by Luria and his immediate circle, on the reasoning that this form of prayer reached a " thirteenth gate " for those who did not know their tribe.

The Kabbalistic school of Isaac Luria, which used an adapted Sephardic liturgy, disapproved of the Spanish piyyutim, regarding them as spiritually inauthentic, and invoked the Geonic strictures to have them either eliminated from the service or moved away from the core parts of it.

** Isaac Luria, Jewish scholar and mystic ( d. 1572 )

In the 16th Century Isaac Luria taught the new doctrines of Lurianic Kabbalah, that became almost universally accepted in traditional Jewish thought.

Among the other teachings, Luria explained a Jewish system of reincarnation, that differs from some Eastern Religion versions, in that it is not fatalistic, or about punishment.

For instance, Luria said that the Medieval Jewish victims of the centuries of Pogroms in the Christian World, were reincarnations of souls from the time of the Biblical first Temple, who had also followed idolatry.

In the Renaissance Period, in the 16th-century Land of Israel, the book Ets Khayim conveys the Kabbalah of Ha-Ari ( Rabbi Isaac Luria ) who arranges the traditional items on the seder plate for Passover into two triangles, where they explicitly correspond to Jewish mystical concepts.

Luria showed himself a diligent student of rabbinical literature and under the guidance of another uncle, Rabbi Bezalel Ashkenazi ( best known as the author of Shittah Mekubetzet ), he became proficient in that branch of Jewish learning.

This made her the fourth Nobel Prize winner to come from Italy's small ( less than 50, 000 people ) but very old Jewish community, after Emilio Segrè, Salvador Luria ( a university colleague and friend ) and Franco Modigliani.

Cyclical time and return are reflected in Jewish traditions such as: The history of the Jewish people is said to be repeating events in the lives of its biblical forefathers ; people ’ s lives in the next world, or after death, are to some extent spiritual repetitions of what they did in this world ; and some kabbalists wrote that time is composed of seven cycles, which repeat every seven thousand years ( a view rejected by Isaac Luria ).

The esoteric explanations of gilgul were articulated in Jewish mysticism by Isaac Luria in the 16th century, as part of the metaphysical purpose of Creation.
